How does one OWN a vehicle?

RPG, IED, C4, M95...you know...shoot at it...or do you mean something else ?

Try explaining your question a little more....

You get in it first. Lets say you jump in an then enter the gunner posision, the next one jumping in the driver seat without the criteria, will get killed in 10 secs.

Oh something I don't get as well.

M95 shooting cockpit glass causes a cobra to blow up after 3 shots, is there no way of implementing realistic damage?

But what if at the start of the round people jump in someone else's car, will they be killed aswell? So how can you pickup people who aren't in your squad?

This only implies for Armor iirc ... not cars/hummers ....

Buy it with $ or £ or € lol

With the new server update, it looks like if you're not in the sqaud that has control of the vehicle, you will die.

Also make sure you have the right kit to drive/fly vehicles.

Press T, Request Kit, Select Kit

I know that. But was just wondering how it would be implemented.

So, therefore only for armour, APCs and choppers. That will keep the b@stards out.

Not sure on choppers / jets, as most pilots don't fly in squads (from what I've seen), but this may change on the patch, not sure.

Yeah, I think it's been designed to encourage teamwork and squads sticking together.

Also, with regards to APCs, does this new feature just affect the driver and gunner position or all of the passenger positions as well?

FWIW I think this is a very good idea, if its gunner and driver, however APC drivers will just have to be aware, if a bluey spawns into the gunners seat and cannot move to the passenger slots, you need to stop and let them out.

The first one to join the vehicle with the right kit is the owner

About the apc, Only gunner/driver

But no one ever does stop and let them out. People are going to end up avoiding moving APCs because the driver just keeps going along. If you jump out you die, and if you stay there you die. Geat!

So am I right in thinking that, say, an APC is driving across the sands of Oman with a squad in, with one seat remaining. My squad is at the other side of the map, so I hop in myself to get a ride. I then die.

its to encourage the gunner and driver working together.

bottomline is: if its not your squads tanb/chopper, leave it the fuck alone.

if its an APC, then stay out of the gunner/driver position, act as infantry support!

and generally i use this rule of thumb for ALL vehicles (especially helicopters): if i dont know the person who is driving, i dont get in the car. because 9 times out of ten, if you dont know them, they will get you killed. they will drive STRAIGHT TO THE FLAG and get pwned by AT rockets.

so do yourself a favor and follow your squad leader, he will know how best to transport you. if your running around by yourself and want a ride, dont expect much...
